So. . .Derrick Henry is MVP so far, right?

[Beaker]

My man is on pace for a 2000 yard season, has 8 TDs, and is averaging an incredible 6.5 yards per carry. Yet, I am not hearing his name in MVP discussions in any of my, admittedly, limited media consumption.

Is Henry the best player in football, or am I on crazy pills?

The dude is a stud.

He wanted to go somewhere (cannot remember where right now) but they didn't want him, despite their owner going "all in."

LOL.

It helps that he gets the carries. Most teams run by committee anymore because paying a RB is such a crapshoot.

15?

Not exactly an enormous number

 

[ducky]

The guy handing him the ball deserves it more. But he already has 2 MVP's and, despite actually improving again and being even better than he was just last year, he might not win the award because of that.

He leads the league in attempts...

i wonder if 2024,s kids are like we were in 73 when oj put on his 2000 yard show?

Vote split

Probably a little.

.....but there isnt a player at this point that is even close so these two will be splitting nearly 100% of the vote at this point.

Your boy Jayden is the next closest player. But his stats put up directly opposite of Jackson will keep most from voting for him because he is now and likely will be statistically at the end of the year a good way off of Jackson's numbers.

Teams have only played 6 or 7 games

And YPC for qualified RBs

Talk of Jayden as the MVP is seriously premature. More a click bait point for media pundits and talking heads.

Lamar has been truly jaw dropping so far this year. Utterly amazing to see his developing arm talent and savvy behind center.

 

[Nasty_Magician]

Feel like the voters ignore running backs so probably not. Mahomes will have a good final month and they'll give it to him.

Definitely could happen. Often plays his best ball down the stretch and given the lack of weapons so far this year for him, he pulls off another SB for a trifecta in a row…

Henry and Lamar are feeding off each other so much, that it's tough to figure out who might deserve it more at this point. Each one opens up so much for the other. Long way to go. I'm just hoping they both stay healthy all year.
